After Mindanao quake, solon pushes for urgent passage of bill to boost local disaster response

MANILA — In the wake of the powerful earthquake that jolted parts of Mindanao, Bohol 3rd District Representative Alexie Tutor is calling on President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to certify House Bill 833 — also known as the Disasters and Emergencies Management Act — as urgent.

Tutor emphasized that the recent tremor highlights the urgent need to strengthen the country’s disaster preparedness system.

The proposed legislation aims to empower local government units by upgrading the capabilities of Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Offices, as well as granting proper benefits and support to barangay first responders who are often at the forefront during calamities.

The measure is seen as a key step toward building more resilient communities and ensuring faster, more effective response when disasters strike.
